Liftra Celebrates 20 Years Anniversary

With the start of 2023 Engineering and Manufacturing company Liftra celebrates 20 years in the Wind energy business. Liftra specializes in providing products and solutions for wind turbine installation, transportation and maintenance worldwide.

20 years ago, Liftra was a startup created by two Danish engineers in Aalborg, Denmark. Today Liftra has grown significantly becoming an international business and employing more than 400 employees all over the world. From offices in Denmark, USA, China, Spain and Poland Liftra focuses on providing high quality solutions within the wind energy industry worldwide.

Currently Liftra has sold over 50 Self-hoisting cranes and has completed more than 1000 projects including installation of the some of the world’s biggest blades and just last year over 200 blades at an offshore wind farm in France.

The year of 2022 was exceptionally good for Liftra, since in addition to opening two new offices in Vietnam and Australia, and going offshore with the LT1200 crane, Liftra reached its record high sales.

After marking 20-year anniversary Liftra expects to continue its growth and thereby contribute towards transition into a more sustainable and green energy focused world. Liftra’s further growth plans include establishing a presence in Brazil as well as introducing LT1500 Turbine Installation crane to their product fleet.

The LT1500 Turbine Installation crane is currently still undergoing last phases of development, before it reaches the market and will be able to provide users with cost efficient and more sustainable wind turbine installation solutions. The new LT1500 utilizes up to 63% smaller crane pad area and reduces the production of CO2 emissions to less than 50% compared to the conventional cranes.

According to Liftra’s CEO and co-owner Per Fenger ‘’Liftra strives to push boundaries in the engineering field and set new standards that can lower the cost of green energy’’
